Tasting Notes
'We don't have anything in mind about what the final blend will be each year,' winemaker Andy Erickson said about this Blacktail blend. 'We want to create something that is unique to the place this year.' The 2018 Blacktail Proprietary Red Blend MMXVIII is composed of 27% Cabernet Franc, 23% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Malbec, 23% Petite Sirah and 4% Petit Verdot. Deep garnet-purple in color, it bursts with flamboyant blue fruits, plum preserves and black cherry compote notes, with hints of rose oil, Indian spices, camphor and pencil lead plus a waft of truffles. The intense, full-bodied palate delivers wonderfully ripe, rounded tannins with beautiful poise, leading to a long floral finish. Amazing wine! Drink date: 2024-2044. Score - 98.
